MY REVIEW:

I really enjoyed this book. Yes, it's written for children but it is so well written, I loved reading it myself!

There are all the wonderful stories from the Bible in this book - The Story of Joseph, The escape from Eygypt, The story of Daniel, and the stories of Jesus - and they are done wonderfully. The stories are easy for a child to understand and the rhyming makes one think of Dr. Seuss books. These stories are stories of truth, though, that will introduce your child to the Bible in a fun and understandable way. 

This book is packed with beautiful illustrations! I love children's books that are colorful because it really holds the child's attention and gives them a picture of what they reading or hearing read to them. I loved seeing all the details of the illustrations and would examine each page as I went along.

This is one of the best children's books of Biblical stories that I've read in a long time. I really like the way it's written and how it goes into great detail in the stories. The rhyming makes it a joy to read and will definitely hold any child's attention. The illustrations are amazing and add to the fun of the book. I highly recommend this book and give it 5 out of 5 stars.
